Silkscreen printing, also known as screen printing, is a popular printing technique that involves creating images by pushing ink through a mesh screen. The screen is prepared with a stencil that blocks out certain areas, allowing ink to pass through only where the design is intended. This method is widely used for printing on various surfaces, including fabric, paper, and plastic. The process begins with preparing the screen, applying the stencil, and then placing it on the material to be printed. A squeegee is used to spread ink evenly across the screen, transferring the design onto the surface below. This technique is favored for its versatility and ability to produce vibrant colors.
